Bolus Freight--Scranton,PA

Im wondering if there are any drivers out there that are working or have worked for Bolus fright from Scranton,PA. They have local jobs, and I was wondering what kind of money their local drivers are making. I know they do not have the newest, nicest equipment, but being home nightly and on the weekends is more of a priority for me right now.

 

I talked to them yesterday.They are starting at .35/mile now. $10 per stop. I will be home everynight. They do have quite a few options for work (local, regional, OTR). Talked to a driver who just recently left, only because it wasn't enough money for him (local work), but he said they weren't bad to work for.

 

I have been with them for about a month and a half now.
Let me start by letting you know that I am a driver who gets from point A to point B as quick as possible. I do not stop at every rest area and service plaza I see. I bring food and drink and only stop if its necessary.
My first week was slow, a trial I assume to see what my work ethic was. My first check was wrong, because I did not fill out my trip pack right. They cut me a check immediately to fix it and explained what I did wrong. I have had no issues since then, all my checks have been correct.
I never tell my dispatcher no, whenever he asks me about doing a run, I do it.... Which apparently is no common with their drivers.
After my first week, I have not grossed any less than $900 a week. I am home every night, and they keep me busy. I run a 2001 Mack with 1.2 miles. I had a small issue with the mirror heater, it was fixed before I was back out the next morning. I had a bigger issue, broke down on the road, and the truck was fixed before I got back to the yard that night.
They have treated me well, but like any trucking company, I think that has a lot to do with driver attitude.... It's a 2 way street. Perfect? No.... But they are keeping food on my table, and I don't mind the occasional long day to get things done.
Just my 2 cents.

 

I am running mostly TJ Maxx ,Gap and beer runs in PA,NY,NJ,DE, and MD. I'm home every night and on the weekends. I'm sure if I wanted to stay out, I'd be making more. They are still running out of Syracuse, not sure what runs out of there though, because I do not go out of there.
